A man who changed his name to Lucifer Of-Darkness had his assault charge called at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Friday the 13th.
Of-Darkness, 41, is accused of punching a man at Edinburgh Waverley station. Formerly Berkani Nahim, Of-Darkness allegedly caused severe injury to Christopher Jamieson on May 29.
Julie Torley, defending, told Sheriff Derek O’Carroll that her client had changed his name.
She said: “This gentleman is in custody. Firstly my lord, he has legally changed his name to Lucifer Of-Darkness, by deed poll. That’s his official name. First name is Lucifer, and second name is Of-Darkness.”
The sheriff smiled. He asked: “Is the Of capitalised?”
Torley said in response: “Yes, and there is a hyphen between the Of and Darkness.”
Sheriff O’Carroll added: “So is his surname Darkness, or Of-Darkness”
He was told: “Of-Darkness.”
Lucifer Of-Darkness was remanded in custody as the case continues.
